a list of “Trending Fandom Articles” (it’s native advertising) both on the Siderail of every Wiki & in the footer of each Wiki (titled “Fan Feed” with yet more native advertising), along with yet another footer below containing a “Discover New Wikis” tab with three sponsored Wikis (almost always the same three). Neither of these three modules are helpful for the maintenance of each Wiki, & exist purely to draw readers away from the Wiki to read whatever article they are showcasing. Adblock doesn’t currently block these by default, & I have had to manually block all three elements on every single Wiki I frequent, which is beyond annoying.

Is it possible for someone to have these blocked by default? I’m a newb when it comes to this, & I just want these annoying buggers to go away permanently.

Oh, okay, so Wikia is using some sort of script provided by Instart Logic to run ads I don't want to see. Got it. But what can I do about it? Although it's a very insignificant problem that only affects very few wikia pages, it's still a bit concerning ads can just slip through EasyList from time to time.

Just tested it on the Undertale Wikia. Smartclip ad still shows at random. Disappears after reload. I have no idea what it is.
You think a browser extension could be injecting ads into my browser? I seem to be the only one experiencing this issue and the ads are IP-Based.
